Abstract

A method for detecting oligonucleotides is provided and comprises forming a series of different sized oligonucleotides labeled with an energy transfer dye; separating the series of labeled oligonucleotides based on size; and detecting the separated labeled oligonucleotide by exposing the oligonucleotides to light having a wavelength between about 250 and 450 nm and measuring light emitted by the energy transfer dye at a wavelength greater than about 500 nm.
